Sourdough Sandwich Bread

Sourdough sandwich bread features a delightful tang and soft texture that’s perfect for sandwiches. Easy to make, it’s ideal for any skill level and offers a flavorful twist to your meals.

  • Total Time: 40 minute
  • Yield: 1 loaf 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 65 grams active sourdough starter
  • 300 grams lukewarm water
  • 12 grams salt (about 2 teaspoons)
  • 14 grams sugar
  • 15 grams oil (avocado or olive)
  • 400 grams bread flour
  • 100 grams all-purpose flour

Instructions

  • Activate the sourdough starter by feeding it 4-8 hours before starting.
  • Mix lukewarm water and activated sourdough starter in a bowl.
  • Combine dry ingredients in another bowl, then mix into the wet ingredients until no dry flour is visible.
  • Cover the bowl and let it rest for one hour.
  • Allow the dough to rise until it doubles in size (8-10 hours).
  • Gently shape the dough into a rectangle and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  • Lightly oil a bread pan and place the shaped dough inside.
  • Let it rise until at least one inch above the pan rim (2-4 hours).
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F and bake for about 40 minutes.
  • Cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

Ensure the sourdough starter is bubbly for best results.
Monitor the dough visually rather than strictly by time.
Let the bread cool completely for perfect slicing.
